Nashik Court Grants Bail to Pregnant TCS Employee Accused in Religious Coercion Case
A special court in Nashik granted bail to Nida Khan, a five-months pregnant TCS employee accused in the alleged religious coercion case at a Nashik BPO office. The court cited the trauma and social stigma a child might face if born in prison, invoking Lord Krishna's birth in captivity. Khan, the only woman among eight accused, faces charges including hurting religious sentiments and influencing a colleague's religious practices. Bail conditions restrict her from contacting the complainant or entering certain areas.
